Lateral Stability of Prestressed Beams during Handling
Lateral Stability of Prestressed Beams during Handling
(OP)
Does anyone know where I can find a copy of "Lateral Stability of Long Prestressed Concrete Beams, Parts 1 & 2" by R.F. Mast? I can only find it at the PCI website, but their website seems to have some issues that are preventing me from downloading it.
Also, I am looking for a copy of "Handling and Shipping of Long Span Bridge Beams" by George Laszlo and Richard Imper. I have an old tatered and illegible copy that has passed through the copier one too many times. Although it is referenced many times in other articles, I haven't been able to find a fresh copy of the actual document.
Many thanks for your help.

I guess, you will have a crane with a very long boom to compensate for a steep sling angle?

Quite not sure, what kind of limitation(s) PCI BDM approach has on the stability issue? And, why it will not be applicable for your situation? Can you please elaborate? I know that PCI BT has narrower top flange that PCEF BTs.
